Subject: Modular Approval of FCC ID: C3K1638

Dear Application Examiner:

Microsoft Corporation is seeking modular approval on Model 1638, FCC ID: C3K1638. The radio
meets the requirements for modular approval as detailed in FCC 15.212. Compliance to each of
the requirements is described below:

     1.    “The modular transmitter must have its own RF shielding.” The radio portion of the module is
           contained in its own RF shielding. The shielding is installed at the factory. Please see the Internal Photos
           exhibit.

     2.    “The modular transmitter must have buffered modulation/data inputs.” The EUT has buffered data
           inputs to insure compliance with Part 15 requirements under conditions of excessive data rates or over-
           modulation. Please see the Schematics exhibit.

     3.    “The modular transmitter must have its own power supply regulation.” The EUT has its own power
           supply regulation to insure compliance with Part 15 requirements regardless of the quality or level of
           external DC supplying the module from the host unit. Please see Schematics exhibit. Also, the technical
           report exhibit contains AC power line conducted emissions data taken with the EUT powered from a
           linear power supply that contains no EMC suppression components.

     4.    “The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna requirements of Section 15.203 and
           15.204(c).” The EUT meets the FCC antenna requirements. Please see Antenna information exhibit and
           internal photos exhibit.

     5.    “The modular transmitter must be tested in a stand-alone configuration.” The EUT was tested in a
           stand-alone configuration. The module was greater than 10 cm from the host device. Please see test
           setup photos exhibit and technical report exhibit.

     6.    “The modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID number.” The EUT is labeled with its
           own FCC ID number. Please see FCC ID label & location exhibit. If the FCC ID number will not be visible
           when the module is installed inside a host device, another label with the FCC ID will be applied to the
           exterior of the host device.

     7.    “The modular transmitter must comply with any specific rule or operating requirements
           applicable to the transmitter and the manufacturer must provide adequate instructions along
           with the module to explain any such requirements.” The EUT is compliant with all applicable FCC
           rules. Detail instructions for maintaining compliance are given in the User Manual.

     8.    “The modular transmitter must comply with any applicable RF exposure requirements.” There are no
           applicable RF Exposure requirements for a 15.225 transmitter, therefore the EUT is compliant based on the rule part.

Please contact me if you have additional questions. Your attention to this matter is greatly
appreciated.

Sincerely,




David Johnson
Compliance Engineer
